The stylish wardrobe of Maggie Gyllenhaal�s role in BBC Two�s hard-hitting political thriller, The Honourable Woman, has caught the attention of the eagle-eyed viewers.

The eight-part series, set against the backdrop of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, centres around Nessa Stein, played by Gyllenhaal. Stein is an Anglo-Israeli businesswoman recently ennobled in the House of Lords who devotes herself to philanthropic purposes across the Middle East, but hides a secret past from her time spent in Gaza eight years earlier.

Through the unravelling of her public and private life played out on an international, political stage, Stein parades in an increasingly impressive selection of outfits.
�Because the character of Nessa is so complicated and multi layered, we looked at all sorts of different people as reference. I suppose we started off by looking at other powerful and stylish women through history, Jackie Kennedy, Eva Peron, Margaret Thatcher, Cleopatra� Edward K Gibbon costume designer for the series told The Independent
